There will be no big business on the Republican Party's ticket,
but they can run for the single-mandate seats, Mkrtich Minasyan,
Republican parliamentarian, told media, Tuesday.
"Both President Serzh Sargsyan and Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan had
repeatedly touched upon such intention of the RPA. Republicans think
that everyone should do his work. So, let businessmen do business and
develop economy," Minasyan said. He said that businessmen having big
turnovers can run for the single-mandate seats or on other parties'
tickets. As for small businessmen, "whose sons have just one shop",
they can run both on the party tickets and for the single-mandate
seats, Minasyan said.
As for the necessity of amending the Electoral Code of Armenia, the
Republican parliamentarian said relevant hearings will be held in the
parliament on Wednesday. He said that the mixed electoral system is
the best for Armenia considering that the country's parliament is a
single- house.
